>> COMMERCIAL
The main benefits of Griffon hovercraft for the commercial role are: the ability to travel at high speed over a wide variety of surfaces; the reliability and low maintenance of the modern diesel engine; the simplicity but ruggedness of construction; the ease of operation and maintenance; the high degree of manoeuvrability; and the capability of fitting the craft out in a wide variety of configurations.

AND RESCUE
There are many tidal areas in
which boats frequently go aground, or areas where people become
marooned by floods, or where people fall through ice –
with a hovercraft these areas are safely and easily accessible
– saving lives.
The British Royal National Lifeboat Institute now operate
six of these Griffon hovercraft. |
